Case Summary - ;� The applicant is proposing to rezone the two parcels to allow for three single family houses to be built. ;f it- Staff Finding/Opinion ° .. ,Z , The proposed rezoning would allow for the two lots to 4� ,:4' �• i�t ° be subdivided into three lots and allow for three single ' 'ti ''~i w family houses to be built. The proposed zoning of R3 s ` � `}° 4 is not out of character with this area as there exists a number of larger R3 parcels across the street. Overall, this type of infill development is encouraged by the Comprehensive Plan and, as such, Staff is supportive of this rezoning request. Criteria for Consideration The Jeffersonville Zoning Ordinance and Indiana State Statute IC 36-7-4-603 outlines that the following shall be considered when the Plan Commission is reviewing a rezoning request: • The Comprehensive Plan; • Current conditions and character of structures and uses in each district; • The most desirable use for which the land in each district is adapted; • The conservation of property values throughout the jurisdiction; and • Responsible development and growth.

Recommended motion "I make a motion to forward the rezoning request(PC-23-18) to the Jeffersonville City Council with [insert recommendation]as presented to the Plan Commission on September 26, 2023. Page 1 of 9 PC-23-18 Staff Analysis for Change in Zoning The following is a summary of staffs analysis of the proposed development as it relates to the land use and development policies of the Comprehensive Plan and Unified Development Ordinance: Current Zoning and UDO Zoning District Intent Current Zoning The subject property is shown in the zoning map to the right. The property is zoned R2 (Single Family Residential- Medium Lot). Adjacent ¢` properties are zoned R2 (Single Family \''ff , Residential- Medium Lot) to the North and East, Cl (Commercial: Commercial: Medium-Scale) to the South, and (Business Park/Light Industrial to the West. N. . • a • `� \ District Intent: Existing The R2 (Single Family Residential — Medium Lot) District is intended to provide a land use category for single family homes on medium-sized lots. The provisions that regulate this land use district should protect, promote and maintain existing residential areas in the City of Jeffersonville and may also be used for future housing growth. The Jeffersonville's Plan Commission and Board of Zoning Appeals should strive to protect this district from conflicting land-uses such as industrial and large-scale commercial uses as well as nonfamily oriented businesses. Article 6 of this ordinance includes additional options and incentives for the development of subdivisions that preserve natural open spaces, floodplains, etc. that exist on site and/or dedicate and construct public park facilities. District Intent: Proposed The R3 (Single Family Residential — Small Lot) District is intended to provide a land use category for single family homes on smaller-sized lots. The provisions that regulate this land use district should protect, promote and maintain existing residential areas in the City of Jeffersonville and may also be used for future housing growth. The Jeffersonville's Plan Commission and Board of Zoning Appeals should strive to protect this district from conflicting land-uses such as industrial and large-scale commercial uses as well as nonfamily oriented businesses. Article 6 of this ordinance includes additional options and incentives for the development of subdivisions that preserve natural open spaces, floodplains, etc. that exist on site and/or dedicate and construct public park facilities. Future Land Use Map and Planning Districts This property has a Future Land Use classification of Residential Neighborhood. These areas are primarily composed of single-family residences and should be preserved as such. Limited multi-family uses may be allowed if they are small-scale, such as duplexes or triplexes and located along primary road corridors including major and minor arterials and collector streets. Care should be taken to integrate any non-single-family projects into the neighborhoods through architectural scale, design, and adequate buffers. Some areas within this classification, especially in the northwestern parts of the city, contain large tracts of undeveloped land. When developed these areas should favor single-family subdivisions and only incorporate multi-family where immediately adjacent to a minor arterial or major collector street. Commercial, industrial, and large-scale institutional uses should be discouraged. Page 2 of 9 PC-23-18 / 3 ; 1 aI / ` 1 r/ / J i��` // A FUTURE LAND USE -.

Development within this District spans decades - from the 1920s on the west end to the 1980s on the east end of the district. Much of the development in the district is automobile-oriented with large strip centers, gas stations, auto repair shops, and drive-thru fast-food restaurants. As newer commercial centers have formed further out, this area has fallen into decline and needs a good deal of adaptation in order to be productive again. Densification, mixing residential and commercial uses, multi-modal transportation enhancements, and the creation of smaller town centers could reinvigorate this area. The following goals are established for the Midtown Planning District: • Promote redevelopment, adaptive reuse, and infill development along 10th Street Page 3 of 9 PC-23-18 • Support the creation of higher-density, pedestrian-oriented developments along the corridor including pocket neighborhoods and town centers. Larger developments should consider opportunities for the creation of public spaces such as plazas, squares, or mini-parks • Promote mixed-residential development along the Jeffboat rail spur that may take advantage of the potential for access to Downtown and the River afforded by the spur • Ensure intentional transitions between higher intensity uses along 10th Street and adjacent single-family neighborhoods. Transitions may be made through changes in building scale, increased setbacks for taller buildings, and landscaping enhancements. • Provide a broad mix of housing types and price-points to ensure a diversity of residents • Require new developments to install sidewalks where existing sidewalk connections to local neighborhoods are missing Additional Notes • None.
